Parent Teacher Association

The Friends of Cleobury Mortimer Primary School (or FCMPS for short!) raise valuable funds for the school through an exciting calendar of events and initiatives involving the children of the school, parents/carers and the wider community.

Our work, and importantly, your support, has meant that in the past two years every child in the school has enjoyed a fully-paid-for summer trip to places such as Wonderland in Telford and West Midlands Safari Park or heavily-subsidised trips to see ‘Gangster Granny’ at the theatre and Waterworld. We have funded play equipment, the WWI Centenary garden in the quadrangle and fencing for the playgrounds.

Events takes place throughout the year, from children’s discos, fetes and mother’s/father’s day shops. We collect unwanted clothes which are converted into cash, and parents, family and friends can sign up to a cashback website, providing us with free donations from retailers every time you shop online.

The FCMPS is made up of a committee of volunteer parents and carers, with the support of our Head, Mrs Mayfield. Some of us can attend every meeting and every event, others play a very important role in the background, organising the finer details of events and others step forward to lend a valuable hand on the day of an event.

We are always delighted to welcome new members in whatever form of help they may take. After all, many hands make light work and many heads can come up with great ideas! Come along to our next meeting (see below), or grab one of the committee for a chat, or drop us an email to friends@cleoburymortimer.shropshire.sch.uk
